    For the purpose, we will use the equation for determining the dissociation constant from concentration and percent of ionization:

    Kd = c * α²

    α = √ (Kd/c) * 100%

    Kd = 6.0*10⁻⁷

    c (HA) = 0.1M

    α = √ (6.0*10⁻⁷/0.1) * 100% = 0.23%

    So, in the solution, the acid percent of ionization will be just 0.23%.
